http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/barnsley/default.stm Take a long hard look at Kayo's miss from the header, that is why he won't score hardly any goals for us this season. Do they not teach strikers to head a ball down no more? ... Cue the abuse from occook, mrx, Loko, Dyson and co.
I agree I can't help wondering if there is something we don't know about, like a niggling injury or whatever. Struggling to think of a reason not to start our best finisher if he is fully fit.
RE: I agree My guess is that he see's Odejayi as the target man were craving for until the Andy Gray deal gets sorted. Contrary to everyone's beliefs about me on here i would have started Odejayi and Bogdanovic at Hillsborough as Jon Macken did nothing in pre-season for me to warrant a starting spot. I only see Bogdanovic getting the goals for us and Macken chipping in with the around 8/9 goals like last season. Personally i don't see Kayo getting more than 3-5, it's okay bringing others into play and linking up with the other striker partner but he's a striker and he's judged on goals and he just doesn't score enough. Hoping that the Gray deal gets sorted soon so he can partner Bogdanovic up top - those would be my main 2 striker's.
To be fair to KO.................................. we missed much easier chances than his header. Hammill missed two gilt edged chances and lets not forget why Lincolns Goalkeeper was given their man of the match. I agree that KO aint good enough for Championship level. The Lincoln centre backs dominated him most of the game.
RE: I agree Can't argue with any of that. Personally I am hoping for more goals from midfield this year too to add to those from whichever strikers are playing. As you say the midfield is looking stronger this season, with the Hammill signing, another potential one hopefully today and Butterfingers coming through.
RE: agreed Predominantly a left sided player but can slot in the middle. That's where i'd expect him to play as we seem fairly strong out wide.
RE: I agree I wouldn't change much in midfield though - keep a settled and stabilised side as nothing much is going wrong. Hammill Anderson Butterfield Campbell-Ryce Butterfield has done nothing wrong to be dropped. Played very well in the 2nd half on Saturday and topped it off with a goal. Supposedly was the stand out midfield player at Lincoln too - according to reports. Anderson was our stand out player on Saturday for me, especially in the 1st half when others looked disinterested; still tried to create opportunities for other's. Bring Hallfredsson off the bench to see what he's like, also Devaney and Colace are more than capable replacements for anyone of those 4. Very strong in midfield now - get Gray in and hopefully Thompson's work permit comes through. With the youngsters having a chance too i'll be much more optimistic for the season. Yes you over positive lot, are you noticing?! I can be positive at times too . Just aslong as you don't mention the words 'Kozluk' or 'Odejayi' to me .
RE: I agree Don't worry I've learnt my lesson on that score. Anyway we all support the same team, good luck to them on Sat regardless of who plays where.
technical help reqd.... when I try to play BBC Sport clips... It comes back with.... 'unable to play this clip from your territory' How could I get around this and watch the clips which, I assume, are only watchable from within england?
I assume that something in the BBC site bars viewers from o/s I wondered if thgere was some way of masking my location
Mick these links might help - one of my friends had a similar problem http://forums.overclockers.com.au/showthread.php?t=730891 http://www.thatstheplan.com/?page_id=21
seems that i'm not Robinson Crusoe, then.... thanks Susie, good read. but it looks a bit complicated and hit and miss..... I don't need it so bad, right now..... I will pick up on this another time when I want it more.... thanks again
The posts Susie sent are excellent The only way I have found that works from outside the UK is the VPN one. Fortunately I can connect to our office and download via that. I didnt know you can disconnect the tunnel once you start the download though - no need to leave the laptop on all night after all I think one of the VPN solutions is really your only practical long term fixes but it seems you need to pay
